Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite Speculation

[Ruin]

I can see them putting in Star-Lord in but putting Gamora and Drax into his moveset like Groot is in Rocket's
would make his gameplay more unique than "space guy what shoots stuff" and could serve as a character for people who wanna feel like they're playing old mahvel with assists

[Count Mario]

I can agree with that execution. It's a bit awkward to see characters that are the same height be pseudo-assists, but then again, Ultron has his AI helper bots on his moveset. So I hope this happens.

[Retro]

More Max with some speculation who could be joining the roster due to varient covers annouced in Marvel books.

[Count Mario]

A new rumored roster leak.

Spoiler:

Arthur
Chris
Chun-Li
Dante
Firebrand
Jedah
Monster Hunter
Morrigan
Nemesis
Ryu
Spencer
Strider Hiryu
X

Ant-Man
Captain America
Captain Marvel
Doctor Strange
Gamora
Hawkeye
Hulk
Iron Man
Nova
Rocket/Groot (this is how the character was named to me; I’m not sure if it’s just Rocket Raccoon with Groot assists or a redesigned character actually called Rocket/Groot)
Spider-Man
Thanos
Thor
Ultron

The Capcom side is missing a character, but it’s probably someone like Frank West.

Venom will come as DLC at some unknown point in time.

Spoiler:

...Gamora? Really? I thought for sure that Star-Lord would get in over her. And I would prefer a villain over either of them.

Spoiler:

No Black Panther. No Ms. Marvel. Capcom reps are missing "something".

[KageKageKing]

Spoiler:

Monster Hunter? Give me a break.

[Furisu]

Spoiler:

Completely disappointing roster. Especially on the Marvel side.

[The Tenth Strawhat]

Spoiler:

No Star-Lord, No Onimusha character, No Rival Schools characters...



Although, Monster Hunter and Jedah (was expecting Lord Raptor/Zabel though) is pretty cool.

[.access timeco.]

Spoiler:

Really disappointing if it is the real thing. Jedah's addition should make me happy, but only having him and Morrigan of the Darkstalkers franchise... Also, was seriously hoping Jin would be brought back.

Also, this should be called MCU x Capcom by the looks of it

Oh well, we'll always have MxC2.

[Jaime]

Spoiler:

Yeah not a lot of new characters are disappointing, looks like they will be saving that for DLC.

I assume Spencer will be Rearmed Spencer and not reboot one.

Also wonder how they will handle Monster Hunter.

[Count Mario]

Spoiler:

You have no idea how much I find it amusing that every single response to this news is universal disappointment.

[Jaime]

Spoiler:

Capcom are master of the art of disappointment at times, especially fighting games.

Spoiler:

This crossover makes so much sense now. If only Konami could've joined in.

[Robby]

Hrm, they're missing key characters that would actually make me interested. Oh well.

Spoiler:

Amaterasu, Sakura, Dan, any of the actually interesting Dalkstalkers, Megaman, Tron Bonne, El Bandito, SonSon, Amingo, any of the X-men who previously made up like 70% of the marvel roster...

[Furisu]

Spoiler:

The fact that the vanilla roster is filled with MCU characters just shows that Capcom truly needs that money. While Capcom's roster is just underwhelming. They really need the money and that's probably why they will release Venom and other veterans like the fantastic four/ the x-men or Black Panther (probably when the movie comes out) as DLC. Where's my boy M.O.D.O.K at? Really disappointed because I expected a roster similar to the one of Injustice 2 with some characters that are very unexpected like Scarecrow or Swamp Thing but also the usual suspects like the Joker or Green Arrow.

Swamp Thing was a big DLC request for Injustice 1 though.

To be fair, I don't think the characters in the roster would mean a lot anyway. Only way people wouldn't be disappointed is if the roster was huge, having 10 or so characters from each side will end in disappointment regardless of who those characters are.

[Robby]

That's why fighting games are supposed to do their very best to maintain as much of the old roster as possible while adding new ones. Cuts and changes are always going to happen, that's part of it... but part of the fun of having fourth or tenth installments in a fracnhise IS having rosters of 60+.

Naturally when they completely redo the graphics and fighting system and everything has to be redone from scratch that's not an option but...

Can't help but notice at least one DLC character we know about isn't on that list

Spoiler:

Sigma

So I reserve judgment until we know more about potential DLC. I remember an old rumor that said the X-Men would be coming via DLC due to the Disney XBargo.

Why put Megaman with X already on it?
